actron-neo-api 0.1.37

Python API wrapper for the Actron Neo API.

ActronNeoAPI

The ActronNeoAPI library provides an interface to communicate with Actron Air Neo systems, enabling integration with Home Assistant or other platforms. This Python library offers methods for authentication, token management, and interacting with AC systems, zones, and settings.

---

Features

• Authentication:
  • Pairing token and bearer token support.
  • Automatic token refresh handling.
• System Information:
  • Retrieve system details, statuses, and events.
• Control Features:
  • Set system modes (e.g., COOL, HEAT, AUTO, FAN).
  • Enable/disable zones.
  • Adjust fan modes and temperatures.

---

Installation

pip install actron-neo-api

---

Usage

1. Initialization

You must provide either an access token or username/password combination for authentication.

from actron_neo_api import ActronNeoAPI

# Initialize with username and password
api = ActronNeoAPI(username="your_username", password="your_password")

# Or initialize with a pairing token
api = ActronNeoAPI(pairing_token="your_pairing_token")

2. Authentication

Request Pairing Token

Pairing tokens are used to generate access tokens. Retain the api.pairing_token for initializing the API later.

await api.request_pairing_token(device_name="MyDevice", device_unique_id="123456789")

Refresh Token

Refresh the access token tokens at initialization, or when they expire.

await api.refresh_token()

3. Retrieve System Information

Get AC Systems

systems = await api.get_ac_systems()

Get System Status

status = await api.get_ac_status(serial_number="AC_SERIAL")

Get Events

events = await api.get_ac_events(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", event_type="latest")

4. Control the System

Set System Mode

await api.set_system_mode(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", is_on=True, mode="COOL")

Set Fan Mode

await api.set_fan_mode(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", fan_mode="HIGH", continuous=False)

Adjust Temperature

await api.set_temperature(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", mode="COOL", temperature=24.0)

Manage Zones

Enable or disable specific zones:

await api.set_zone(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", zone_number=0, is_enabled=True)

Enable or disable multiple zones:

zone_settings = {
    0: True,  # Enable zone 0
    1: False, # Disable zone 1
}
await api.set_multiple_zones(serial_number="AC_SERIAL", zone_settings=zone_settings)

---

Logging

This library uses Python's built-in logging module for debug and error messages. Configure logging in your application to capture these logs:

import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

---

Error Handling

The library defines custom exceptions for better error management:

• ActronNeoAuthError: Raised for authentication-related issues.
• ActronNeoAPIError: Raised for general API errors.

Example:

try:
    systems = await api.get_ac_systems()
except ActronNeoAuthError as e:
    print(f"Authentication failed: {e}")
except ActronNeoAPIError as e:
    print(f"API error: {e}")

---

Advanced Features

Handle Token Expiration

The library automatically refreshes expired tokens using _handle_request.

Proactive Token Refresh

Tokens are refreshed before they expire if expires_in is provided by the API.
